Copyright. 1915. ty the Herald. Reproduc tion prohibited. Published by arrangement.) THE HAGUE, April 29. (Special.) The adoption of a ringing resolution urging that moral, social and economic pressure be brought to bear upon all nations failing to Tefer their disagree ments to arbitration, marked the open ing of the second day of the Interna tional Congress of Women. That all secret treaties shall be void was a fur ther conviction of the congress, cx presed in resolution form. Mrs. Glendower Evans, of Boston, and Mrs. I-ouis F. Post, of Washington, ad dressed the congress In support of this plank. Mrs. Evans at first, in behalf of the American delegation, urged the im mediate publication by each nation of nil existing treaties and conventions, hut was glad to accept the more drastic resolution proposed by a Dutch delegate and supported by German delegates. Convent of Governed Demanded. Much discussion, not critical, but by way of elucidation, ensued over the resolution affirming that there should be no transference of territory with out consent of the men and women re siding therein. It was introduced by Professor' Emily Greene Balch, of Wellesley Oollege. in a speech pointing- out that it is as unjust for the population to be tranasf erred arbitra rily to another political unit as it was in. the time for religious warfare for a Prince to determine what was to be the religion of his subjects. Her vPmarks brought forth stirring Illustrations of the wrongs committed by such arbitrary tranasference from Belgium, Polish and Italian delegates. Kmily Napieralski. of Chicago, representing- 200.000 Polish-American wom en, moved the congress by her plea for restitution of a united Poland. The resolution prevailed unanl - mously. . Rewritten lilMtortoM SuKKeMted. The evening sessions are taken up with addresses of a popular nature. Florence llolbrook, of Chicago, last night pointed out the desirability of rewriting school histories with a view of making them less distorted in favor of the military and of introducing peace education' in schools. Tonight's session was devoted to the topic of suffrage and the war. Alice Carpenter, of New York, spoke. While at times the business of the convention must needs progress slowly because of difficulty in handling our languages, and while at times slight misunderstandings occur, due to the extreme caution with which represen tatives of the warring nations and of . nations nearest the theater of war nec essarily must express themselves, yet the prevailing spirit is excellent and the leathering demonstrates that the solidarity of women has held firmly in .. the midst of the present cataclysm. PAMPHLETS AKOISK FEELIXG Antl-Rus.sLan Propaganda Declared to Originate in Germany.' THE HAGUE, Via London. April 29. The entire session today of the Inter national Congress of Women was de voted to the discussion and adoption of two -resolutions. The tlrst provided for democratic control in framing the foreign policies of nations. It recom mended the nullification of all secret treaties and participation in the adop tion of future treaties of the people, at least through the legislative branches of governments. The second resolution, presented by Misa Emily Balch, of Wellesley Col lege,' opposed the transfer of territory of one nation to another without the consent of the inhabitants. It recom mended recognition of the right of peo ples to self-government and demanded a democratic form of government for every nation. Large quantities of pamphlets deal ing with conditions in Poland were dis tributed among the delegates. This aroused some feeling on the part of the women, who characterized it as anti Kussian propaganda emanating from German sources. T5r. Solla Golinska, of Munich, and Emily Napleralskl, of Chicago, made speeches In support of the movement for the freedom of the Poles. Fiefer ences also were made to the political position of Jews and Finns in Russia.

Spokane bonks stand ready to lend $500,000 or more to the apple dis tricts of the Northwest under any plan that may prove the most feasible, re peating their practice during the last two seasons, declared representative bankers of the city today in discussing the proposed plan for the formation of a loan pool for financing the Wenatchee growers, similar to the $500,000 pool subscribed by Seattle banks. - Plans In detail for the organization of a loan system with the Wenatchee growers will be placed before the bankers of the city within a few days, states G. B. Adams, president of the Wenatchee North-Central Washington Growers' League. Mr. Adams negotiated the Seattle arrangements and conferred briefly with Spokane bankers on th subject. LEFT MRS.

Mrs. Takels returned to. the court room lust as her ex-husband was tak ing the stand, and she sat down in the end of the rear seat, tie naa ;usi uum nleted testifying that his ex-wlfe had been responsible for his having lost a number of jobs when Mrs. Tackels rose to her feet and walked toward nim. ne drew the small 32-caliber revolver and fired when the barrel was within a couple of feet from Tackels' head. Court Bailiff Johnson was but an Instant too quick for her, and defeated her deadly intentions by striking her hand and causing the gun to deflect so that the bullet pierced the wall not far from Judge" Stevenson's head. Before the gun could be wrenched from her hand she fired a second shot, but in the struggle the gun was pointed so that it struck Mrs. McElroy. Spectator Make Hurried Exit. In a twinkling the courtroom was cleared of spectators and attorneys, all fleeing to escape the flying bullets with the exception of the judge and bailiff and Mrs. McElroy. - . Had Mrs. Tackels' intentions been realized she could easily have been forestalled before a shot had been fired, for she walked several feet before she attempted to use the weapon. However, she did it so naturally that no one in the courtroom realized there was any danger until they saw the outstretched weapon and the flash of the shot. The mother of the girl had just entered the courtroom preceding the shots, and took the seat which her daughter vacated as the latter started on her mission of revenge. Mrs. McElroy," who is employed in the District Attorney's office and was tak ing testimony at the time, wished to return to her work at the ofnee in spite of the wound which she had received, but was sent home in an automobile. She is a senior at the University of Oregon law school. The sanity of Mrs. Tackels was ques tioned when she was arrested previous ly, but no examination of her mental condition was ordered. On the evening of March 11, when she was released from a previous charge of shoplifting after hnving attempted sui cide. Dr. William House made an un official examination to see if she was WHA POISON INQUIRY DELAYED Coquiilc Grand Jury Postpones Case - of Mr. and Mrs. C. Itnssell. MAHSIIFl ELD, Or., April "29.

"I suffered from nervous dyspepsia and stomach trouble so that large lumps would seem to come up in my throat, and would get so dizzy I could not stand up or even see. I tried different reme dies but nothing seemed to help me until one day my -druggist told me about Vinol. I tried It and soon no ticed an improvement and now I am well." IRA T. MATTESON. Upper San dusky, Ohio. - Vinol seldom fails to strengthen and tone up the tired, overtaxed and weak ened nerves of the digestive organs and remove the cause of indigestion and soon enables the sufferer to digest with ease the foods that once caused distress. Vinol also creates a healthy appetite and builds up the weakened run-down system.

Buffering from melancholia, that would possibly lead to another attempt at self deetructlon. . Relatives Are Warned. "I warned her mother at that time," said Dr. House last night, "to watch the girl closely, for. as she had tried to commit suicide once, there was danger that she might make another attempt. I did not make a- close enough .exam ination to determine her sanity, how ever." Since her first appearance at police headquarters on March 5, when she asked to be placed in Jail for 30 days that, she might escape domestic trou bles. Mrs. Tackels has been one of the most spectacular characters the local police have had. to. deal with. No for mar charge of insanity was ever lodged against her. though she was suspected of being mentally deranged from the time she first desired to break ' Into JalL Suicide Desire Announced. Mrs. Tackels prefaced her remark that she wanted to be locked up. on the night of March 5, by asking Police Cap .tain Circle to lend her his gun that she might kill herself. She said she had once before attempted suicide by swal lowing carbolic acid, but had recovered. Apparently cured of her desire for Jail, Mrs. Tackels was. released March 7, without having appeared in court on any charge. On -March 3 Mrs. Tackels made an other entry into the city jail, this time on the charge of shoplifting. She at tempted to swallow poison, but-was prevented by store detectives. The goods , were returned and Mrs. Tackels was released by Judge Stevenson under a continued sentence. Since that time, according to the records in the women's department,-Mrs. Tackels was arrested for being Intoxicated, but was not held on the charge. - - Shoplifting Chnrgre Filed. A week ago Mrs. Tackels was again seen in. Municipal Court, when she ap peared as a witness against her hus band, Harvey Tackels, on a charge of vagrancy preferred against Tackels and Sue Sterling by Police Lieutenant Harms. The case was continued until yesterday for hearing. In the meantime ."Dolly," as Mrs. Tackels was more generally known to the police, was in trouble again. Mon day afternoon at 2 o'clock she was arrested by City Detectives Hyde and Vaughn on a complaint signed by W. B. Griffith, charging her with the larceny of a dress from the department, store of Olds. Wortman & King. Familiarity had bred contempt of restraining bars by this- time, and Mrs. Tackels made a clever daylight escape from Jail. While Mrs. J. C Sampson, the matron, was elsewhere Mrs. Tackels sauntered from the woman's section of the Jail on the fifth floor of the Municipal build ing and' demanded that the elevator man take her to the Bureau of Public Safety for Women on the third floor. Instead of entering this department when she stepped from the elevator, Mrs. Tackels walked down two more flights of stairs and to the street, past officers and desk sergeant unquestioned. Appearance Is Surprise. Since that time her whereabouts were a mystery, and no trace of her had. been fourld until she walked into court yesterday of her own accord, with the desire to testify as to her husband's relations with the woman she hated. . Mrs. Tackels is 26 years old,, pretty, ' and dresses well. She has been di vorced from her husband for two years, but,, if It had not been for the ' other woman, was to have been remarried this week, it was declared yesterday. "I am not jealous of the other woman. I wanted to win my. husband back to a better life," said Mrs. Tackels in the City Jail last night. Tears still showed on her face. Her hair was disordered, and every feature told, of the mental crisis she had just endured. "I had the revolver Inside my waist." Mrs. Tackels continued. "I thought if Mr. Tackels came Into court to make me out a liar well, I didn't know what I would do. I was Just driven to where I couldn't stand it any longer. Scorn Assigned as Reason. "The thought that Harry had won my confidence and caused me to be sepa rated from my child just to scorn me later, had made . rae desperate. It seemed that he had done it for revenge because I would't go back to him when he first asked me. "But It's no use. If he hasn't any more manhood than that, I am foolish to love him." Mr. and Mrs. Tackels were married nine years ago. Two years ago they were -divorced, but were separated only a month, according to Mrs. Tackels. Last September Mrs. Tackels again left the man and went back to her parents, Mr. and Mrs. G. W. Conklin, of Mllwaukie. Mr. and Mrs. Tackels have one child, Millicent, 6 years old. "I was so happy- with my parents again," said Mrs. Tackels. "Then my former husband came back and wanted me. Father and mother said he would bring me trouble. I told him to stay away, but he 'wouldn't. "Then my parents started legal pro ceedings to get the custody of the child. Harry said that if I would stay by him we would fight the case untfl we won. I would have shot him in the head. I think, if the officer had not seized me." Mrs. Tackels said that she and her husband had gone to high school and normal school together before their marriage at Mankato, Minn.
